Creamy Spinach Risotto

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was fabulous with the adjustments I made:
    - doubled the garlic and all the spices
    - did not cook and puree the spinach. Simply added in the cream, then the fresh spinach, stirred to barely cook the spinach and added the cheese
    - sprinkled fresh lemon juice on top
    - pine nuts would also make a good topper
